4. For each extension, lead, or plug, fully insert the torque wrench (packaged with the
neurostimulation system) into each self-sealing grommet of the connector block and
tighten each setscrew (Figure 2).
#
Cautions:
Be sure the torque wrench is fully inserted into the self-sealing grommet. If the
■
torque wrench is not fully inserted, the setscrew may be damaged, resulting in
intermittent or loss of stimulation.
Before tightening setscrews, ensure that the extension or lead connector pins are
■
inserted into the connector block to prevent damaging the lead or extension.
Verify that each leaf of the self-sealing grommet is closed after the torque wrench
■
is withdrawn. If fluid leaks through a grommet seal that is not fully closed, the
patient may experience shocking, burning, or irritation at the neurostimulator
implant location, intermittent stimulation, or loss of stimulation.
